BaWü, Germany meeting "Zynthian Stammtisch"

Hi all

In another thread the idea of a regional meeting in BaWü, (southwestern Germany) emerged.
Interest in dev room / booth at FrOSCon, Germany?

To attract more possibly interested parties and not to simply takeover the initial thread, I decided it would be better to start a separate thread.

So, it’s basically a question of when and where.

  • Would we prefer a physical location or shall we start via jitsi (like Zynth Club) to sound ideas, possibilities, locations etc.?
  • Maybe a combination of online/offline events?
  • With changing locations to compensate for distances and enable more participants?
  • Should we change to german here or would it be better not to exclude non-german speaking participants?

Please share your thoughts and add your ideas.

Grüßle,
Steffen

I am from Koblenz, Rheinland-Pfalz, and would be interested in meeting Zynthian people personally. But because of the reason a meeting would be in the middle of Germany, mostly with german speaking guys, I would suggest to change to german sequencer (sequencer.de) forum. Its a great synthesizer/music community also with people who are experienced and helpful in organising “synthesizer”-meetings.

jeah, good idea. i’d be in. cheers from Karlsruhe

Hi there,
because of not knowing how many people we are, I’d prefer an initial virtual meeting to plan a physical meeting in BaWü and surrounding area.

Let’s collect topics in this thread (there are already some) and fix a date and location.

I’d suggest: evening anywhere between 5th to 8th of March?
Location: tba (how does ZynthClub handle the video conference invitations?)

Regards and greetings from Gaggenau

You Personal Message @riban

Hello everyone, I would also be interested in a meeting in Baden-Württemberg, I live near Freiburg.

I haven’t been to any other forums apart from the Zynthian forum yet.

Cheers

Just to get things started, I propose a date:

2025-03-07 19:00 (CET, so 18:00 UTC)

Analog to the ZynthClub, we could meet via Jitsi.

Please comment, if this date is ok for you, to early, to late, already blocked etc.

Grüßle,
Steffen (@Neuffen)

Will it be in german language?

I’d say we’ll see.
If all participants are fine with german, that will propaply be the language of choice for a regional meeting. If not, we’ll find a way.

That might be a problem for some participants either way round.
While one might not feel comfortable enough with german, others might have the same problem with english.
Hey, we might even have problems in between Badener and Württemberger… :wink:

=> The intention should be, that as many of those who wish to participate actually can participate.

That said: This will be an initial meeting either and we are always free to discuss that and find the most suitable solution for all participants.

That’s funny, I just in the next couple of minutes wanted to suggest the same date for it. But nice - I’ll be in, be it in English or German or Klingon or Badenserisch or Schwäbisch or … well, stop it here.
Would you DM me the invitation link, because I’ve never been at the ZynthClub.
Regards

Please, god, no…

I also just wanted to say my klingon is a little rusty…

Right! Report for extra soup!

in Goethe’s laguage ? Ich kan älsäsich redde, s’ech wie zwizzer deutsch.

Much more easier than Hoch Deutsch :grin:
Regarding klingon, I don’t know why, for me it’s associated to Calgon, the definitive weapon against limestone in the washing machine (as they say in the ads).

don’t eat it :upside_down_face:

Oh, what a pity, unfortunately March 7th doesn’t work for me…

Sorry, but when I read “Calgon” I instantly remember Dieter Bürgy, the Chuck Norris of washing machines.

oh ! it’s exactly the same jingle at the end
But I guess, it should be the same “in klingon”

I just DM mailed the Jitsi-Link to the participants in this thread.
If someone else wants to participate, just drop me a DM.

Why not sharing the link here directly?

I asked @riban the same obvious question and he answered he wants to prevent to much “unwanted attention” due to bots etc. which is a valid point…

Reminder:
2025-03-07 19:00 (CET, so 18:00 UTC)

I’m holding my own but I fear I’m going to be outvoted…

And I won’t understand that’s happened. . .

You are all in for lots and lots of soup…!!!

Whenever you decide to do things.

Do it.

@Lumm @wyleu @Tithrion @gitnob nice meeting you.

here’s a poll to find a date. as a location karlsruhe is the current suggestion since its somewhat in the middle of interested parties.

please use the same name in the poll as in the zynth forum
